Apart from the tournament, IndiGG also commenced the reputation program which will help build a public record of an athlete’s performance. The data will help the evaluation of an athlete’s reliability and sportsmanship in the esports space. The records will also establish credibility and trustworthiness around esports athletes that can be leveraged by teams, coaches, and sponsors while onboarding an athlete.
During the championship, the members had an opportunity to build their on-chain reputation as they were awarded badges. The badges are digital tokens that recognize and reward an individual’s involvement and contribution to an online community. The participating gamers were rewarded with ‘Proof-of-Participation’ badges, similarly, the winners received ‘Proof-of-Victory’ badges and the first-time viewers were able to mint a ‘Proof-of-Watch’ badge during the live stream of the event.
